but the spec sheet says 2????

anggun, you're right. Two ports only since it's a CECHK01 box.

anyone saw MGS4 being demoed? They should do that... really.

Are the game prices going to be on a limited time only, or it will stay the same after the promotional period, i.e, when they are being sold at sony style outlets?

i read previously that the price is going to be at rm1599 after 120th queue, something like that. What's the deal with it?

Alright just got back myself from One U...

i got there at 230 with my friends, by then alot of the fun had gone and any people including the Soul Calibur 4 guys were just resting, when i reached there i immediately nicked myself a goody bag by saying "PLAYSTATION 3" 10 times as fast i can tongue.gif....needless to say that i did it and won the bag...but the left the bag in my friends car doh.gif....lets hope he's nice enough to give it back to me tongue.gif ...

Anyway when i reached there i saw the line was still going on and that if im not mistaken there were a few dozen RM100 vouchers were up left for grabs, also i managed to see some game booths with Assassins Creed, Ratchet and Clank Future, Resistance Fall of Man and Ninja Gaiden Sigma...i played all three for half and hour each pretending that i did not know how to play till one of the launch officials came and said "For a first timer you are very good"...i had an evil laugh inside me tongue.gif....after that i proceeded to the Soul Calibur 4 booth, by this time the event was over and the booth was opened to the public. Me and my friends started to play a few games, i won a few and went to the game girl competition....

I was actually expecting alot from these ladies but felt letdown, not because they were not hot...it was because some of them were...umm...uh..not bright when it came to video games one girl even said.

"If im chosen as a gamegirl i would play games"
(or something around those lines)

i was like wtf woman??
As a gamegirl you should already be playing games. But some of the  other ladies knew what they were talking about...

After that i went to check the line again, it was much shorter than a few hours ago but the thing is it seemed like a nonstop torrent of people coming to buy the PS3...i went to the game shelf and asked the dude there how much was SIREN...he said not released yet and not for sale...i proceeded to kill the said dude and leave his body underneath some PS3 boxes... never mind the ineptitude of some of the staff i managed have a good look at the store room with all the PS3's and games there, went inside for a while and saw a fast dwindling supply of PS3s....

at 430 i left to watch Zohan and buka after that...was too lazy and hungry to come back for the event. tongue.gif

when you said "saying the word 'Playstation 3' repeatedly for 10 seconds", only I recalled. Near the stage's left corner, right?

personally, i like to see the cosplayers more, well.. probably their costumes are more colorful, I guessed. Sadly my camera didn't capture the colors quite well.

Kind of sad that didn't showcase much of MGS4 today, just a trailer. Soul Calibur 4 seems to be the hype in this event, perhaps they are targetting on a more general market, maybe?

I was delighted to know that the blu-ray titles are somewhat cheaper than the price being sold previously. Hopefully the price could drop more, so that I can get more games soon with the price I'm paying now for one single game.

2.43 is not compulsory for Asian set. if u already have 2.42 can just leave it "as is".
*
2.43 apparently is only compulsary for Japanese sets. It fixes known bugs in 2.42 release.

nope. lucky me when I buy aquos got free hdmi cable. at first I thought, wtf is this?

I think Sony should give away HDMI cables, considering that people pay 1799 for the console.
